ShatterPro
®
Glassbreak Sensor
Installation Sheet
Product Summary
The ShatterPro
®
omnidirectional glassbreak sensor (60-873-
95) provides 360 degree coverage. It can be mounted on the
ceiling, or on the opposite wall, or on adjoining walls. It has a
range of up to 20 feet for glass panes 1' x 2' (0.3 m x 0.6 m)
or larger.

ShatterPro Glassbreak Sensor
The maximum detection range is 20' (6 m) for plate,
tempered, laminated and wired glass. For armor-coated
glass, the maximum detection range is 12' (3.65 m).
Coverage is measured from the sensor to the point on the
glass farthest from the sensor (see
D
and
D'
in Figure 2
below). See Specifications on page 4 for recommended
glass thickness.

Note:
ShatterPro may not consistently detect cracks in
glass, or bullets that break through the glass.
Glassbreak sensors should always be backed up by
interior protection.
Installation Guidelines
For best detection, avoid installing in rooms with lined,
insulating, or sound deadening drapes or rooms with closed
wooden window shutters inside.
Do not use sensor near air compressors. A blast of
compressed air may cause a false alarm.
Avoid stairwells, glass booths, and all rooms smaller
than 10' x 10' (3 m x 3 m).
The Pattern Recognition Technology™ of the
ShatterPro ignores most false alarm sounds. Some
sounds can duplicate the glass break pattern the
ShatterPro detects, however, so the ShatterPro works
best in rooms with only moderate noise. Avoid rooms
where white noise, such as a fan, is present. Avoid
rooms with noisy areas or multiple noise sources such
as small kitchens or bathrooms, garages, etc.
Note:
For glass break protection in these applications
(where ShatterPro is not appropriate), use shock
sensors on the windows or window frames.
Avoid adding (learning) the sensor into 24-hour sensor
groups, where the sensor will be armed even when the
room is in use. Like a motion detector, a glass break
sensor may be tripped when occupants are in the
protected area. Adding the ShatterPro to a perimeter
sensor group, which is armed only when the perimeter
doors and windows are armed, will help prevent false
alarms.
The device may not work properly in humid rooms. Do
not install it in such conditions.
